Kathmandu, May 22
Naya Shakti Party Nepal Coordinator Baburam Bhattarai says the government’s decision to reject the US visit proposal of Province 2 Chief Minister Lalbabu Raut was a serious mistake.
The decision will increase doubts and create distance between the federal and provincial government, the Naya Shakti Coordinator tweeted on the micro-blogging site Twitter.
प्रदेश-२ का मुख्यमन्त्रीलाई संघीय सरकारले विदेश भ्रमणमा रोक लगाएर गम्भीर गल्ती गरेको छ। कारण जेसुकै भए/दिए पनि यसले भर्खरै संघीय पुनर्संरचनामा गएको देशमा संघ र प्रदेश बीच शंका/दूरी बढाउनेछ र गलत नजीर बसाल्नेछ!संघीय सरकारले तुरून्त निर्णय सच्याओस्!

A meeting of the Cabinet held on Sunday evening had decided to not allow the Chief Minister to visit the US as the government was yet to announce the annual policy, programme and budget for the upcoming fiscal year.
